    Early Morning In The Kaimanawas

    Have posted a couple of vids on here but thought it may be good to give a short introduction as to who we are. My son Ben and I get out hunting at least once a week all year round, mostly in the central North Island. We mainly hunt Sika but have a few spots where we hunt reds as well and also keep the pig population under control for a couple of farmers. Most of our hunts are morning or evening hunts, the vid link shows one of our typical morning hunts.

    Ah, welcome to the forum. Your daughter was MC at my sisters wedding last weekend.

    What are you filming your videos with?

    Nice work thanks for posting.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Hi Pointer. Filming with a Canon SX60. Awesome camera, 65 X optical zoom, real handy for this sort of work. Still leaning the editing thing but getting there!

    I totally agree with all the other comments, particularly how you took the time to make sure that the hind didn't have a fawn tucked away.( a lesson for others at this time of the year).
    Great bit of filming & your editting wasn't too bad either!!!

    AND: a bloody good shot mate.
